吾家有弟初成长

The memories of my little brother crying so hard when I left home for Singapore are still so vivid. That was 9 years ago.

And now, he's the one who left home for university. And lucky enough for him, Selangor is not too far from all of us, we have all came to send him off. Making sure everything is alright before leaving him completely alone in a new place, for the first time in his life.

I'm sure he will be enjoying his uni life soon, making new friends, blending into the environment, making full use of the facilities in the uni etc. And of course, missing all the home cooked food and the warmth at home like we used to be. But I can't help to worry.

The last thing that came into my mind before I slept last night after coming back was, will he be lonely on the first day? The first thing that came into my mind this morning was, will he be waking up on time for orientation?

There had been hiccups, but I'm sure things will be fine. Most importantly we will support him and make sure he won't give up easily!

I wanted so much to hug him before I left, but I didn't because I was so afraid I will cry before I realize. When I left, I cried quietly when nobody noticed. The home will be so much different without him. I know it sounded crazy but I miss him the moment I left KL.

But I know, he's going to have the best 3 years!
